Hello Tykvesh,  the zipped cluster_1 exceeded the max total size i can upload here.  Are you looking for a specific file from the cluster_1 folder?  I will upload the client_save in zip just in case you want it.  Thanks alot!!

By the way, I have sent in the whole dontstarvetogether game file folder (35MB) via the submit request option on this site.

client_save.zip

I'm looking for this file, something in it prevents your world from resuming:

Klei\DoNotStarveTogether\103709574\Cluster_1\Master\save\session\4ED11F7829D3FB93\0000002171

There is no file in the session folder.

well I found the file you are looking for from the backup file I created earlier today.  Its not in the Klei folder for some reason.

0000002171

@chillplayer, huh... Maybe I misread something in the server logs. Can you go to Klei\DoNotStarveTogether, and initiate a search for a file named "0000002171"?

the 4ED zip is from my backup folder and the master zip is from Klei\DoNotStarveTogether

4ED11F7829D3FB93.zip Master.zip

I just did a search in the Klei/DoNotStarveTogether folder and I can find the 000002171 file in these 4 files 

client_log_2020-12-16-17-41-02.txt server_log_2020-12-16-17-37-08.txt server_log_2020-12-16-16-21-57.txt client_log_2020-12-16-15-59-30.txt

@chillplayer Good news! I've looked into the save file and found the issue. I can repair it so you can play in your world again! Follow these instructions:

1. Go to your Host Game menu
2. Find the save that fails to load
3. Click the folder icon on it, it should say something like "Open Cluster_1"
4. Upload that folder here!

which folder? the 4ED one?

@chillplayer The folder that will be opened when you press the "Open Cluster_X" button, it contains everything that belongs to that broken world.

hm..after I pressed the 'Open cluster_1" button, I saw a Cave folder, a Master folder and a cluster configuration setting file, which file should I upload? or do i have to upload every file in that cluster 1 folder?

I am not sure how to upload the folder in game...lol

@chillplayer Here's what you need to do after pressing the "Open Cluster_1" button:

1. Go back one folder (Alt + Arrow up)
2. Select the "Cluster_1" folder
3. Open its menu
4. Select "Send to" -> "Compressed (zipped folder)"
5. Upload the zipped folder here

 

Here you go and thanks for all your help.

Cluster_1.zip

@chillplayer This version of the save should work properly, though I had to reset your caves: Cluster_88.zip

Unzip it in among the other folders named Cluster_1, Cluster_2, etc. After that, another "Chillplayer" world should appear in your Host Game menu.

Awesome!  I just tried to load in the the saved game and it works now!!! Thank you so much. Btw, is there any way to restore the new o shanta skin that I unraveled when I was in panic mode after I found out I cant load into the game after I bought that skin?

Also, do you know what's the reason that causing my world broken? I want to avoid that from happening in the future.  Thanks again Tykvesh.

I don't know if your issue was caused by a mod, but I've added a suggestion for the developers, if it gets adressed this won't be an issue in the future!

Did you have any weird interactions with a boat and a wobster den the last time you played that save before it got corrupted?

yes theres a boat that has drifted near a wobster den and stucked there.  Visually it's blinking around a wobster den in my world and I still see it in the restored save. Do you think that caused the problem? I am planning to get rid of it when I play later anyway.

Yes, you should remove both the boat and the wobster den via commands or manually breaking them, they are what caused the corruption.

yea I just pick axed the wobster den that get the boat stucked and now the boat stop blinking. Everything looks normal now.  Thanks for the help guys!

How do you get rid of the boat with command if this happens again? like what command do I use?

You open the console with tilde (~) and send this in the box:

c_find("boat"):Remove()

On the left from the box it should say "Remote", press Ctrl if it says "Local"

Its been done.  Thanks Tykvesh.
